A special group looked into claims that patients were charged too much money for medical care at two major hospitals. These hospitals are Ridge Hospital and Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
The committee found that some staff members did indeed act unethically regarding patient charges. These practices were not approved by the hospitals.
The group presented its findings to the Ministry of Health. They stated that disciplinary measures should be taken against certain staff members.
The Ministry of Health will now review the committee's recommendations. Further details on the specific charges and the disciplinary steps are expected.
This investigation aims to ensure fair treatment and proper billing for all patients receiving care.
The committee's work focused on upholding professional standards in healthcare facilities.
The final decisions and any actions taken will be announced following the Ministry's review.
